Pitt Baseball had another player reach the Bigs this afternoon, with Logan Evans winning his MLB debut in a duel with the 3rd overall pick of the 2020 MLB Draft, Max Meyer.
Logan went 5 innings, giving up two runs. 3 strikeouts/3 walks - made a couple slick defensive plays from the mound. They pulled him well short of 100 pitches because their bullpen was well rested & they have some days off ahead.
